Ainsley House Hotel is not the place to go if you want bland, corporate accommodation served by bland, corporate staff. It's cosy, welcoming, the decor is a little dated but clean and the proprietor is a hoot! It's just a stroll from the beach, pier and the Lanes and it offers a good, hearty breakfast. The rates are very attractive,... More

The staff were very friendly. Very warm welcome. We stayed in room 11 at the top of the building. Stairs and tight corners make luggage difficult to carry up. The whole decor is dated but I didn't go to Brighton to look at the four walls. Good breakfast served extremely quickly. Only real complaint was the shower. It was useless.

I stay a few nights a month in Brighton for business and over the years I have stayed in quite a few places, mainly B&B. Most B&Bs are conversions, most need repair and all have their quirks. However, for the price one can get if they search carefully on the internet, Ainsley House offers good value, great location (with free... More

You couldn't get a better location and parking was easy. When I go and stay in Brighton I want to see the Pier from my room, it makes it so much more exciting and really in the Brighton spirit. We were in the middle of Kemptown, the best part of Brighton for restaurants and bars as well as nightlife!!!! The... More

This Guest House needs modernizing, there's no denying it, however in terms of what I needed it ticked all the boxes. I went to Brighton for work purposes and needed a low cost room, which is what I got. The staff were very friendly. No pretenses here. The breakfast was good, but there are so many places to eat and... More

Plus points: It's close to the centre, the staff we met were helpful in finding free parking. But that's about it. This is somewhere that we definitely wouldn't be going back to. Perhaps the glowing reviews have been given a special room somewhere in the building; but I saw nothing that would convince me that even bearing in mind the... More

Thankfully we only stayed for 1 night...as it was a reasonable price we didn't mind the cramped room, although the furnishings were very outdated. However when we started to settle in we noticed how dirty everything was, there was ALOT of dust and we were not keen on unpacking our stuff and placing it on any of the surfaces. Then... More

The rooms are quite crummy and in desperate need of a more modern styling. Our room looked like coming to someone´s old summer cottage where you have put the old stuff you don´t want to use at home. The bath room was very small and completely lacking comfort.The view to the sea and Brighton pier was good, the location is... More

The location of this hotel is so convenient for the visitor to Brighton and within walking distance for most visitors. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful and the rooms very comfortable and clean. Early breakfast was provided without any problem and directions to parking and hospital clearly given. Would have no hesitation in return visit to this convenient and... More

It's just a 5 minute walking from the Royal Pavillion. We just spent 40 Pounds for a wonderfould double-room, with a romantic sea viewing. From 8 to 9 am, you can taste a very good hand made English breakfast. Oweners are lovely! We'll absolutely get back here!
